HTML - Table/cell Problem

Hi everyone:

Any help appreciated.

Objective: To have three equally sized and spaced images arranged horizontally, with their size set automatically by the size of the window.

Development: I'm using a Mac, and I don't have ready access to a PC to experiment.

What I tried:
Code:

	<table>
		<tr>
			<td><img src = "a.png" style = "width: 100%" /></td>
			<td><img src = "b.png" style = "width: 100%" /></td>
			<td><img src = "c.png" style = "width: 100%" /></td>
		</tr>
	</table>
	<p class = "caption">A caption for the 3 images</p>
	<p class = "legend" >A legend for the three images</p>

What happened: This works perfectly in Safari and Firefox (Mac) and Firefox under Vista, but in Internet Explorer under Vista , the images are HUGE - the unscaled size of the originals.

What I think is the reason: IE is taking 100% to be relative to the width of the body element, not the td element.

What I don't want to have to do: Use fixed sizes or calculate the sizes on the fly.

What I'm trying now: removing the table and using a div, and inside that, setting the image width to 33% and floating one right and one left.

What's the trick to get around this IE "gotcha" please?

Thanks from a newbie.

The table itself is working fine, but the size of each cell is not correct in Firefox.
Here is a screenshot of what is happening:

Here is the head of my page, the css for the table is he

HTML Code:

<style type="text/css">
#cat table {border:0px solid #333333; cell-padding:0; cell-spacing:0; align=center} 
#cat tr {align=center}
#cat td {font-size: 13px; font-family=tahoma; font-weight: bold; padding: 0px; border:0px solid #333333; align=center;} 
#cat td a {text-decoration: none; color:#757575; background-color: white; display:block; height=23; background-image: url(linkbg1.gif); align=center;} 
#cat td a:hover {background-color: #333333; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;color: #ffffff; background-image: url(linkbg2.gif); align=center;} 
</style>

and here is the table code, located in the body of the page:

HTML Code:

<div style="Height:53px; overflow:auto; width:900px; position:absolute; top:0; left:0">


<TABLE bgcolor=#333333 cellspacing=0; cellpadding=0;><tr><td>

<div id="cat"> 

<table width=900; cellpadding:0px; cellspacing:0px> 
<tr align=center> 
<td width=20%>
<font face=tahoma><a href="home.html">Home</a></font>
</td>
<td width=20%><center><font face=tahoma><a href="openings.html" target="_top">Openings</a></font></center></td> 
<td width=20%><center><font face=tahoma><a href="dance.html" target="_top">Dance</a></font></center></td> 
<td width=20%><center><font face=tahoma><a href="projects.html" target="_top">Projects</a></font></center></td> 
<td width=20%><center><font face=tahoma><a href="vocaloid.html" target="_top">Vocaloid</a></font></center></td> 
</tr> 
<tr> 
<td width=20%><center><font face=tahoma><a href="fanflashes.html" target="_top">Fanflashes</a></font></center></td> 
<td width=20%><center><font face=tahoma><a href="caramelldansen.html" target="_top">Caramelldansen</a></font></center></td> 
<td width=20%><center><font face=tahoma><a href="cosplay.html" target="_top">Cosplay</a></font></center></td>
<td width=20%><center><font face=tahoma><a href="endings.html" target="_top">Endings</a></center></td>
<td width=20%><center><font face=tahoma><a href="anime.html" target="_top">Anime Episodes</a></font></font></center></td> 
</tr> 
</table>


</div> 
</td></tr></table> 
</div>

A table is nested within another table. The table on the outside has no content, it is there to make a gray border around everything else.

If you look at the table in firefox & internet explorer, you'll see that in IE- the table is much thicker than in firefox. How can i make it so that the table in Firefox will have the same thickness as the one in IE? I could really use some help. Thanks!

Hi everyone.

So I got my template set up to the way I like it and everything is rolling good. I inserted a picture into one of the cells in the table and it shifts everything over.

Here is my code:

<td width="625" colspan="1" bgcolor="white">
<font type="Arial" size ="5" color="blue">
<b>Floorplan</b><br>
<center>
<a href="floorplanlarge.jpg"><img src="floorplansmall.jpg" border="0" /></a>
</center>
</td>

I have been working on fixing this for the last hour and am out of ideas on what is going on. The picture is smaller than the cell width range. My picture width is 311 pixels and the cell width is 625 pixels.

I dont know if there is code whether its HTML or CSS to prevent the cell from widening.

Any help would be appreciated. Also if you need me to provide more detail I can. Thanks.

Hi

Can someone please tell me how I can make a table cell (which contains text which is linked) linkable?

http://www.revolution.worldclanleagu...?site=calendar

Here you can see a calendar with months at the top. When you hover over a month, the cell highlights but only the text inside is actually selectable - I'd like to make the cell selectable/linked.

PHP/HTML I have:

Code:

<td class="calendar-month" align="center"><a class="calendar" href="index.php?site=calendar&amp;month=01">'.mb_substr($_language->module['jan'], 0, 3).'</a></td>

CSS:

Code:

a.calendar, a.calendar:visited, a.calendar:active {
  font-family: Arial;
  color: #dbdbdb;
  font-size: 11px;
  line-height: 13px;
  text-decoration: none;}
  
a.calendar:hover {
  font-family: Arial;
  color: #dbdbdb;
  font-size: 11px;
  line-height: 13px;
  text-decoration: none;}
  
.calendar-month, calendar-month:visited {
  font-family: Arial;
  color: #dbdbdb;
  font-size: 11px;
  line-height: 13px;
  padding: 5px;
  background-color: #2f2f2f;
  border-bottom:3px solid #1d1d1d;
  border-right: 1px solid #000;
  border-top: 1px solid #424242;
  border-left: 1px solid #424242;}
  
.calendar-month:active {
  font-family: Arial;
  color: #dbdbdb;
  font-size: 11px;
  line-height: 13px;
  padding: 5px;
  background-color: #2f2f2f;
  border-bottom:3px solid #1d1d1d;
  border-right: 1px solid #000;
  border-top: 1px solid #424242;
  border-left: 1px solid #424242;}

.calendar-month:hover {
  font-family: Arial;
  color: #dbdbdb;
  font-size: 11px;
  line-height: 13px;
  padding: 5px;
  background-color: #3f3f3f;
  border-bottom:3px solid #1d1d1d;
  border-right: 1px solid #000;
  border-top: 1px solid #424242;
  border-left: 1px solid #424242;}

(sorry theres so much css)

Thanks in advance =D

So i am building a site for a friend, and created a navigational bar across the top with 7 tabs. The bg color is currently blue with white letters, and I want to make it white with black letters on a mouseover. I tried a couple different things from google, and nothing worked. Here is the code for the table. I would appreciate all the help I can get. Thanks!

Hello,

I have a problem with tables cells containing form buttons:

Code:

<tr>
<td colspan="2" align="center">

<button id="button-submit_2" type="submit">Add Name</button>
&emsp;&emsp;&emsp;&emsp;&emsp;</form>

<form action="nrt-home-edit&delete.php" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="class_name" value="$class_name[0]"/>
<button id="button-submit_2" type="submit">Finish</button></form>

</td>
</tr>

The above code puts the two buttons on their own lines within the table cell. My question is, does anybody know how to keep them on the same line without putting them into their own individual cells?

i want to open a frame by clicking on a cell,i can only do this when the ref is outside the table,can you help?
Thanks everybody

I have (for my sins - should have read up on css earlier) a table-based site, essentially with header, footer, left and right cells and the main piece in the middle.

I have used different background colours, but am wanting to highlight the middle bit.

I have used a border, but that seems to centre on the edge of the cell - ie half the specified border size is inside the cell and half outside. The effect of this is that my two side pieces have whitespace before they start.

Is there any way to specify a 'border' which stays totally within its relevant cell ?

Thanks.

I've got a small problem, i want to make a table cell that works as a button.
I tried it this way:

Code:

<table border='1' width='100%' height='10%'>
<tr>
<a href='page.htm'>
<td width='20%' height='100%'>
</td>
</a>

But this won't work, does anybody know how I can solve this problem?

I recently made a rollover menu, and though the text does highlight when I roll over the cell, the link only works if I rollover the word is the cell. Is there a way to make the cell itself link?

Code:

          <td class="row5" style="text-align:center;" width="50">


<b style="font-size:15px; color:#c9c5be; font-family:Georgia;">2</b> <span style="color:#c9c5be;">topics</span>
<br />
<b style="font-size:15px; color:#c9c5be; font-family:Georgia;">1</b> <span style="color:#c9c5be;">posts</span><br /><br />


</td>

I'm not sure how it's looking in IE, but in Firefox all the text in this table cell is aligned to the right. I can't figure out why.
Row5 only adds a background color and nothing else.

It's visible here ^ The grey topics/posts text is aligned to the right in Firefox rather than in the center where it should be.

I can't figure out why it's not aligning right. Any help appreciated.
